Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
Public transportation. You created the problem, now you must live with the consequences.
Requirements vary from state to state and department to department. Generally, you would need a GED or high school diploma, good driving record, and a clean criminal history. Most departments will also require a physical fitness test, a polygraph, drug testing, a stable employment history, excellent references, a psychological evaluation, some form of IQ or mental abilities test, and a credit check. Many departments also require an applicant to have two years of college (or more) or military service with an honorable discharge. The minimum age for employment varies, but is normally 18 or 21 years old.
I'd call the PD and let them know I was the homeowner and had accidentally set off the alarm. That way the officers know to expect someone when they get there. I would wait for them outside, and I would have a driver's license (or other ID with my address) to show them I was the homeowner.
You should contact the local police department.

How cooperative are Mexican authorities re: US immigration and border control?
Yes, any time an officer arrives at the scene of a call, makes a traffic stop, rolls up on an undispatched incident, or does pretty much anything, he/she calls it in on the radio. It is a safety issue. Most patrol cars have GPS and are constantly tracked by dispatch also.
Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. They will know what to do.
No.
You might want to try public transportation or a bicycle.
